Here's the another video uploaded that's way better with lighting. You can see everything in this one.

Again. No tricks, simple properties of physics being manipulated. Nothing too great. But I must say, it looks sweet.

  • This is not a physics trick.

    The coin is suspended by a thread.

    Notice the rotation as the coin is released.

    Thats the weaving in the thread under tention. It then centers to a equilibrium point. Eventually the coin will stop spinning due to friction.

    Another dead give away is the low lighting. Because the thread itself is visible.

  • It cant be done... that is unless you have a string. It wouldnt spin like that if it was really floating. Retard. Im 11 and I know that

see all

  • wat.. the.. deuce.. was that!? omg -.-" thats not physics! thats string! u'd be better off trying to teach a sewing class than even attempt manipulating physics u moron!

  • dude vid suck can barly see anything but i did manage to see the string!!!!

  • This is so fake, hahah...

    You can even see the string, and if it were real physics, it would only spin to a certain place and then immediately stop.

    I can't believe you're honestly trying to get people to believe this :P

  • you suck giant penises

  • meh...it was stupid

  • I don't know why technogearhead got two votes down. This video is terrible. At least as described in the description. Manipulation of physics my ass. You want to manipulate physics do something that actually does or actually seems to. Hovering a quarter using string is perfectly within the bounds of physics. The explanation prior to my post is dead on the giveaway issues in the video. It is clearly spinning on a centre point, aka the string. (centre is correct, I'm Canadian.)

  • lol.

  • That is such a fake, you must have used string.

  • uses a string or magnets
